F2F-WLC CHALLENGES:
- - WEEKLY GROUP CHALLENGE (Challenges hosted by teams for the entire group)
- - MODERATOR'S CHALLENGE (Challenges hosted by the moderators of the group)
- - INDIVIDUAL CHALLENGES (Challenges within teams themselves)
Team Weekly challenges will be announced in later communications
(Note:The team order for challenges follows the team order in the group standing sheet on the spreadsheets)
HOW OUR CHALLENGES WORK:
We have 4 total possible challenges and NONE are mandatory. Our challengers can do none or all it's up to them. So we have...
The F2F Weekly TEAM Challenge - posted each week on Sunday in the announcements by the team who is assigned that particular week (see above for your week). This is for the F2F Group as a whole.
F2F Moderators Challenge/Topic of the week - This challenge is provided each week in the announcements area. One of the moderators will either provide a challenge that will involve anything fitness, health, and nutrition.
Individual Team challenges - these are challenge done within your own team. You can chose daily, weekly, or monthly challenges (weekly seems to work best). You can make this whatever you wish as long as it's health and fitness related.
Note: If for some reason your team is unable to provide the weekly challenge please let me know ahead of time so another team can take your place or so I can provide the challenge.
Good Luck Teams: Please let us know if there is anything wrong or if you notice something that needs to be fixed or modified. Everything seems ready to go for SEPTEMBER. Registrations are almost done and we have quite a few new challengers. Make sure you are going into your new team threads to welcome anyone who has started posting. Let’s make our newbies feel welcome and show them some F2F love!!
THANKS, YOUR MODS

@AustinRuadhain, this position has your name all over it!! You are the most encouraging, supportive and motivating member of our group. You would be an awesome captain for us!! Just saying!

Welcome to our new members - and welcome back to returning members!!
I am Mark (@broncobuddee), a Slimpossible captain. Captain Jen (@Kres567) is looking to take a break from "captaining" after three(!!!) years of service to the team - but we are excited that she is remaining with the team as a member. Team leadership also includes our awesome motivator @AustinRuadhain and @TeresaW1020. But we are really just the behind-the-scenes support to an great team with substantial participation by the team members.
Here are some pointers to get our new team members started:
1) Weigh-ins
On your weigh-in day please post your weight in the following format:
Username: (Your MFP username)
Weigh in week: (The week you are entering your weight for ex. Week 4)
Weigh in day: (The day you weigh in each week. Sat-Fri)
Previous Weight: (The last weight you entered)
Todays Weight: (Your weight on your chosen weigh in day)
2) Check-ins
Along with our weekly weigh ins, many team members also participate in daily check-ins. We recommend them as a way to stay accountable and provide the following information each day:
Calories: over/under?
Water: over/under?
Exercise:
Goal or Improvement for tomorrow:
3) Challenges
There are three each week and each is optional.
Team Challenge - Something posted within our team - and we're always looking for suggestions!! I'm not the creative type so this has always fallen on Jen
Group Challenge - this is a challenge sponsored by one of the teams across the group. Look for it to be posted either in our team discussion pages or in the main group page.
Moderators Challenge - this is a challenge from one of the Moderators. Likewise, look for it to be posted within our team discussion pages or in the main group page.
Your participation is key!! Have a success today? Share it! A challenge? Share it! A question? Please ask! Some else is likely to benefit from your participation.
Finally, let's help welcome our new members with some introductions. Please share your name, where you live, how long you have been on MFP, and anything you want to share about your weight loss journey so far - successes, challenges, goals for the month.0 -

Hi,
My name is Jami and I’m new to the team. I live in San Diego so there’s lots of opportunities for activities but I work about 50-60 hours a week so that doesn’t leave much time for me to enjoy it. I’m looking for indoor workouts I can do in my living room and I think this weeks Moderators workout should really help. I hope everyone has a wonderful week!!3 -
Hey, Jami! Welcome to the Slimpossibles!! I read your post and went immediately to the Moderator’s Challenge—- and I’m so glad that I did! I printed the Challenge page and plan to do this every day!
“New Beginnings”, the theme of this challenge, is speaking to me right now. I’ve struggled this week getting back into my routine after several weeks away. I pressed the reset button this morning and am ready to tackle things head on again. And what better DAY to start than the first of the month..... and what better WAY to start than with a new, healthy challenge!
I hope you’ll find this group as helpful as I have. I’m on my final 15 of a 45 pound weight loss—— every time I doubt myself ( which happens too often), I find inspiration and support here. Take care and enjoy the challenge!!2 -
Hi, I'm new to the team too.
The Moderators workout looks really good but I must admit I won't be doing it yet, I have my own workout regime I'm already following (I have an app on my phone that handles my home workouts, and I'm following a running programme too). Let us know how you get on with it though @Jamidi ! I'm going to save the Moderators workout for when I reach the end of my current workout programme I think.
Introduction to me: I'm in Wales, also with tons of opportunities (outside when the weather is reasonable, and I'm fortunate enough to have my own treadmill for when it's not), but I'm due to start teaching again this month so I'll have to be a lot more organised with my time! I've not been on MFP very long but I've had a loooong history with trying to sort out my weight. About 9 years ago I lost about 45lb with my BodyBugg (so amazing, I miss it), but I then put more than 25lb of that back on over the next 9 years. I decided that 2019 was going to be the year that I sorted everything out, so I've lost approximately a stone since Christmas and radically improved my fitness, completing C25K in June and now running 4 times a week, having gone from "I'm just not meant to be a runner, that's for other people" to actually missing the running when I'm on a rest day in my programme. It's really bizarre. I can see a massive difference in my fitness when I'm out walking in the hills - hills I would have had to stop several times going up last year, I do in one shot now and still have energy left. And that's the biggest plus at this point, working on my fitness has really taken over from worrying about how slim I might be, or how many pounds I've lost; the pounds will take care of themselves if I eat the right things (necessary for my fitness) and carry on with the workout programme. It's very liberating.
New Beginnings is perfect for me too, @KMD1214; while my exercise routine has been great, the last couple of weeks have been challenging, food wise (read: chocolate/crisps/biscuit binges, and this is the ONLY place I've admitted that), so now is time to really buckle down and behave myself, and think about what the food I'm eating is contributing (or not!) to my well being. I'll have to think about what photos I can use for that photo challenge too.1 -
Hello @hinemoa2088, @Jamidi AND @angielove88 - Welcome to Slimpossibles! If you haven't done so, look for the STAR to the right of the thread title (MISSION SLIMPOSSIBLE TEAM CHAT - September 2019) and select it so add this thread to your MFP bookmarks. The Slimpossibles chat will be here all of September (we set up a new thread each month).
@Jamidi - So great to meet you! You mentioned living room workouts. My current favorite is platform stepping. I have a step platform, and do step up-step down while watching something or listening to music. I also have used simple videos, like the Leslie Sansone videos on YouTube.
@KMD1214 - "...I’m on my final 15 of a 45 pound weight loss..." Wow! Thanks for this reminder. Your progress in so inspiring!
@TeresaW1020 - I have been tracking my own steps daily (say my goal for the next day, and then note in a daily check-in whether I made it), but I find the idea of tracking everybody's steps a bit intimidating. Any great detail people out there interested?
Did you hit the treadmill on Saturday, as you were hoping to do? Or get out for a walk to get those steps in?
@raleighgirl09 - I know you are disappointed with the Friday weigh-in, but it does sound like you are thinking about what to do about it, which is great. All that "hamster wheel" thinking sounds
You can do damage control over your family holiday and buckle down next week, and make changes after doing all that assessment and reflection work (hamster wheeling!) you mentioned.
@digger61 - Great day! And great job holding steady while managing your new work routine!2 -

Hey Captains - my last weigh in for August was 211.2. I get confused on which week is which so I have gotten lazy about trying to identify the week... =< So that I have a better handle on it, when I weigh in on Fridays, starting for Sep 6 is week 1, Sep 13 is week 2, Sep 20 is week 3 and week 27 is week 4. I'll add that - let me know if it isn't right! This month is a little easier, the first day being a Sunday... =>0

Yes, I did have a spreadsheet where I was keeping track of my steps but then this whole house moving thing has really gotten in the way. Once I'm settled I will start tracking again and maybe in October, I will be able to keep track of everyone who wants to join in on a challenge. I do love me a good spreadsheet!
@Jamidi, there are lots of YouTube videos for doing exercises at home. Type in Living Room workouts and you will find a ton! Welcome to our group!!
@angielove88, welcome! You have a great attitude towards fitness and letting your weight take care of itself. I totally agree!! If you focus on a good fitness routine and eating right then the weight has no choice but to follow along. I look forward to getting to know you!
Hello everyone! My name is Teresa and I've been a regular poster on Mission Slimpossible for just over a year! I became one of the group motivators last month and I'm thrilled to be able to encourage and support you all in any way I can. I was a Weight Watcher member for over two years but last month I ended that membership because their plan just wasn't working for me. I have been doing intermittent fasting since February and I've been doing low carb/Keto for almost two months. I'm a very slow loser and I try hard not to compare myself to others or get too discouraged when the scale doesn't move as I want it to. I've slowly lost 60 lbs and I have about another 40 to go. I'm OK with the slow losses because I KNOW that I will get there and being a part of this group is a huge help in keeping me mindful and accountable.
Sunday Check in:
Calories: under
Water: over
Exercise: We went for a little walk with the dog and I did some more packing around the house.
My September goal, which I told in the post below is to be in Onderland by the end of the month. That means I need to lose 5 lbs!! I'm determined to see 199.9 on my scale this month!!!
Let me see your September goals!!

You've got it! Your starting weight for this month is the same as your last weigh-in for August. Then you have all the weeks right. Even if you give it the wrong number, I'm sure it is easy enough to figure out which week you mean! Unless you skip one or something... You can always have a look at the spreadsheet itself to see how it is laid out. Each week and its dates are there, so it is easy and kind of fun (ok, I'm a bit geeky). There is a link on the F2F home pageraleighgirl09 wrote: »Hey Captains - my last weigh in for August was 211.2.

The man cub returned from University this weekend and this momma has been enjoying her time which means no exercise has occurred and I didn’t get anywhere near my steps in. Food was a success though. I do not seem to have much issue going over calories since I switched to eating more of a paleo/AIP diet.
Goals or Improvements for today:
Exercise of any sort!
Hello. Everyone! My name is Michelle and I have been with this wonderful group for 1 month now. A little bit about me... I am in my early 40’s, married and have 2 young adults (1 in College, 1 a Senior in HS). 5 years ago my body decided to attack itself instead of fighting an illness which left me diagnosed with an autoimmune disorder called Transverse Myelitis. I am fortunate and am able to be mobile however it was limited. Back then I was only able to walk 10 minutes before my legs would go numb and then nerve pain would begin. Doctors were little to no help so I started doing my own search for healing which is where I am now. I have switched my diet to a paleo/autoimmune protocol lifestyle and I have begun to exercise. I can now walk a mile in 24 minutes on the treadmill. Huge victory for me! I always took my health and body for granted and it wasn’t until I got sick that I realized that I was my own worst enemy. That day I lost so much...the ability to go play with my kids, not being able to go on outings with my family or friends for fear my legs wouldn’t hold out or the nerve pain would be too great. My journey to healing is not over but it sure has come a long way.
For my USA friends, happy Labor Day! For all others, have a Super Day today! And for any in the path of Hurricane Dorian, please be safe and my prayers are with you.5 -

Happy Labour Day from Canada!
We’ve been at our friends cabin all weekend. On our way home today. Ready for start of school tomorrow and getting back to a routine!
My name is Jen and I’m from Calgary Alberta Canada. I am 44, married with 2 kids - 12 and 6. My husband works out of town half of the time. I work full time out of the house so life can get a little unbalanced for me. I’m trying to focus on me more. My husband is going back to school for two months so I’m excited about having home home to help. We are also trying to support each other with fitness and fat loss goals.
I’ve been with the this team for a long time
now. I’ve learned so much from everyone and am always excited for a new month and meeting new people! Summer has been great but has resulted in a weight gain for me. I have about 35lbs to lose but my first goal is to get to onederland.
Happy September everyone and best of luck this month!1 -

Hello again!
It's been a long summer without you guys!
I strayed away from my routine of working out regularly and eating healthy and I gained about 5 lbs, which isn't the worst thing but I know I didn't have to if I kept up with my workouts.
I am a full time baker at a local cupcakery and cafe, so I am up and about really early in the day. By the time I'm off I am exhausted from being on my feet. Also I love sweets! So baking is hard without tasting what I am making. I have gotten better at not eating as much on the job and only when I am absolutely hungry.
This morning was wonderful. My boyfriend and I went on a early morning hike since we were both off from work. It was nice being active and feeling my body move.
This time around I'd like to lose a few more lbs.for myself and for an upcoming vacation to El Salvador in January. Where there will lots of outdoor activities and I need to keep my stamina and endurance up

@bronchobuddee, thanks for the offer to record our steps. This week for me is crazy because I'm moving next Monday but soon I would love to help get a challenge going. Maybe we can do it in a couple of weeks or so.
@angielove88, wow working in a bakery would not be good for me! I once worked for a couple of years at Starbucks and their pastries and free coffee wasn't not helpful for my diet. You might need to just draw a hard line in the sand that you don't eat the sweets you bake. Maybe allow yourself one treat a week so you have that to look forward to. Keep that vacation firmly in your mind and you will achieve your goals!
Monday Check-In:
Calories: under
Water: over
Exercise: stayed late at work and did some packing once I got home.
I'm on the final countdown to the move into my new house. I'm excited but this week is going to be busy. I will try to check in as much as I can!

Oh @angielove88, I could never work in a bakery. I love baked stuff! Well done for not eating everything you see
Monday check in:
Calories : under
Water : over
Exercise : beginners strength routine and half hour run
Goal/improvement for tomorrow : I was rubbish with procrastination today. I did achieve one important thing but I had time for so much more, and just... didn't. Trouble is I'm going out with a friend tomorrow so I won't be able to focus on work much.. So goal will be to simply come in under calories, as she wants to get lunch out.1 -
@TeresaW1020 I'm totally up for a step challenge!!!
And I'm trying not to eat all of the salty things at work tonight, like I did last week before weigh-in day

Sunday Check in:
Calories: over
Water: under
Exercise: Took a couple of walks, did a lot of cleaning and moving around for today – almost 15,000 steps!
Remember the good, be the good, encourage others on their journey
My September goal: 205 lbs – I ended August on a gain and tore into just eating whatever for several days so this accounts all of that.
I'm not sure why I decided to abandon all sense of reason eating these past several days, ending on a real tear over the holiday weekend. I'm glad I'll be back on a routine now - I obviously need the structure. Getting to 205 means losing some pounds again (won't know what the damage is until tomorrow morning). On a brighter note, my old lady aches and pains are so much better and I'm exercising more - looking forward to continuing that trend as I back down to the kind of calorie and sodium numbers needed for losing. =>
A good week to all - lots of great progress here, love reading about how everyone is doing!
